HAMSHACKLE KOAIiS Good roads were responsible in large measure for tlie high state of civilization and culture which the old Roman Empire reached centuries be fore the invention of the telephone, the automobile, the steam engine or any of the other modern facilities of travel or communication. What was true of the Romans 2,000 years ago is as true today of Americans in their intercourse with one another. .Concrete examples are not lacking of the suspicion and Ignorance which prevails in many districts of this country where roads are virtually impassable, for in those communities contemporaneous conveniences of our modern society are likewise slow to be introduced. Very few telephones or railroads are found In remote parts of certain states of our Union, largely because the public highways, in case any have been laid out, are practically inaccessible. Pnnr roads anywhere serve as a barrier to the quickest an dmost ef ficient promotion of education, en lightenment, understanding and good will. Good roads are the comple ments of progress, thrift, Unowledge and community development in gen eral. Large appropriations should be made and effective work done in that direction. The welfare of society, communal, state and national, would be furthered thereby. to raise Cain and create Inefficiency. "Sabotage" Is a good word. It means the carrying on of class strug gle while at work. The Nation is at work to win the war. Persons guilty of sabotage are guilty of disturbing the process of the Government and of industry necessary for winning the war. Let us combine to eliminate sabotage from this country. It may show itself In strikes, mob violence, or even individually by disloyal re marks. The doctrine of sabotage is vicious. Let us overcome this by co operation. Pull together don't in terrupt. Another thing we have discovered is that the longer an explanation is the less it explains. Daily Hoover Hint The Indiana lawyers have raised their fees that's more than many of their clients will be able to do. There are "Sammies" at the front who shuddered at the horrors of the Balkan War. THE NEW BOOKS AMERICA, THE LAND OF LANDS We blame, we criticise and heap suspicion upon our America, its Gov ernment, its heads and upon all the social, religious and indutsrial insti tutions; we are shocked, provoked, offended by our fellow countrymen, but, after all, we are sure that we are living in the best of all lands. "Yet, if on daily scandals fed. We seem at times to doubt thy worth. We know thee still, when all is said, Tlie best and dearest spot on earth." Thus Whittier addressed "the land of lands" America. There is not a man, woman or child of the United States who does not rise with en thusiasm and whose blood does not run fast at the sound of our national air. There is not a laborer living in the meanest hovel whose prayers, whose hopes and v whose service does not live for the accused, criticised, bedraggled and crucified America. Whittier continued: "O Land of Lands. To thee we give Our prayers, our hopes, our service free; For this thy sons shall nobly live. And at thy need shall die for thee." A few years ago the opinion was expressed by a prominent judge that the local option law, requiring a minimum fine of $300, defeated itself. His argument was that the authori ties, in the fact of the expense of jail ing a man for 300 days, would hesitate to prosecute violators of the law. The minimum fine is not too big. "Corn Cookery." To the housekeeper whose mind is almost worn out from trying to think of fourteen wheatless meals for every week, the books which are now ap pearing with recipes for corn dishes are invaluable. Mrs. Mary L. Wade has written a book in which she does not stop with com breads, but gives the rules for making any number of corn dishes, from soups to desserts. There are Jf0 recipes in all. All have been gathered by Mrs. Wade from trust worthy sources, according to her own fore-statement, and some of the recipes are "new" and "different" enough to make the family forget that they are eating corn instead of wheat. For corn breads and pones, there are recipes from many states. Muf fins, griddle cakes and drop cakes come in for a section, too, and a short space is given to mushes and gruels, which it seems may be made in more appetizing manner than formerly. Meat and fish dishes, made with corn meal, occupy a section, and the various ways in which sweet corn may be used are also listed. Five soups, in which corn is combined with other vegetables, are given, and then a number of desserts, including pud dings, jellies and pies, are described. The final section is devoted to can dies, and the cook is surprised to learn that many of the best candles contain corn in some form or other. It is interesting to know that the "Book of Corn Cookery" is dedicated to Mrs. Mary T. Lincoln, author of the "Boston Cook Book." The first chapter is devoted to a discussion of the origin, nutritive value and di gestibility of corn. (A. C. McClurg & Co., Chicago; 1917: cloth; 105 pages; 7.1 cents net.) Meat Substitute. 2 cups cooked cowpeas or black- eyed lady peas, mashed or run through sieve. One-half cup grated cheese. 1 tablespoon drippings (bacon) 1 small chopped onion. 1 tablespoon chopped green pepper. Cook vegetables, onion and pepper, in fat until tender. Mix with peas, form into loaf and bake. Good, either hot or cold. If preferred, top of loaf may be brushed with egg or milk to make brown evenly. No. 511 in Miller Shoe Company's contest. Sarin? Bread at South Dakota U. Bread boards are being used at the East Hall dining room at the Univer sity of South Dp-kota for the first time this week. Hereafter all bread will be sliced at the table In quantities needed. There will be no stale slices of bread under this plan. As several hundred students cat at East Hall three times daily the saving will not be inconsiderable. Vegetable Soup., , 2 cups left over vegetables. 1 cup tomatoes. 6 cups water. One-fourth cup rice. 3 tablespoons butter. 6 tablespoons corn meal. 1 cup hot milk. Salt, pepper, celery seeds, onion to suit taste. When done1 there will be C cups of soup.

One hundred and twenty-four Cal laway County teachers who attended the annual meeting of their county association in Fulton last week sign ed he membership roll of the Teach ers' patriotic League. One teacher who said he had conscientious ob jections to war, did not sign the roll. Superintendent n. G. Hale who talked with him on the subject, told him he ought to resign his job as a teacher. Begins Week Lecture Tour. Miss Mary Robinson of the home economics department of the Univer sity began Saturday on a week of ex tension teaching in Texas and adja cent counties. Miss Lola Braswell, district emergency home demonstra tion agent stationed at Cabool, saw the women and arranged the itinerary for Miss Robinson. I). J. Sullhan In Army Laboratory. D. J.

Mr. Sullivan degenerates of a town, who are nat-j "ow nS " the laboratories of . - ., ,, the medical service, to when post he urally loafers and "spongers on the trangferred l city s charity, are allowed to inrive j by law-breaking, there would better,1 be no local option laws. Prosecutions should be made and maximum fines exacted as examples. Possibly the American girls left behind can think of little else than that they have been left, so it may be i of interest to them to know that .the French girls are said to be unusually good looking. The Open Door policy is all right, nationally and internationally, but beginning now please close the door when you enter or leave our living room. DON'T INTERRUPT Any person or group of persons who actively or passively interrupts the Nation's progress In time of war, is guilty of gross disloyalty. War time is the time Tor co-ordination of every resource for the purpose of victory. Not only for victory', but the end should be an early victory. A long war is costly in lives and money. We have a big Job on our hands, and It Is the duty of everyone to pull in the harness. This applies to capital, labor, the press, public speakers, po litical parties and all organizations and individuals of the commonwealth. It is no time for any cult or faction SUGAR PECIAL 12 lbs.

J. .uX'atistlaml Believes Too Free Circulation of Air Wasteful. Investigations have shown that with coal costing approximately ?5 a ton. the expense of heating an S-room house in the climate of the Missis sippi Valley approximates $80 a year, according to E. J. McCaustland of the University of Missouri. Thjs is a suf ficiently large sum to make it worth while, to consider means of getting the maximum heat efficiency from fuel. Fuel can be saved by preventing too free air circulation in the house, says Dean McCaustland, but this should not be carried to the point of inter fering with proper ventilation. Heat losses from rooms increase directly with the extent of window surface. If ordinary shades are drawn over the windows, they will prevent, to some extent, the losses of heat due to radiation. Stoves are notoriously inefficient for heating purposes and with them, as with the open fire, much heat is lost up the chimneys. Proper manip ulation of check drafts will help to reduce such losses.
